additional information concerning the
work of the lightning at ShnfOrdville,
alluded to by us yesterday :
Sunday about 1 o'clock during a se
vere thunder storm which passed-over
Shufordville and surrounding country,
a bolt ol lightning struck the barn and
stable (combined) of Dr. Fletcher. The
roof of the building was ignited and
burned off. The structure, of brick, -was
saved by the plentiful use of. water,
whioh - was convenient. -: There, were
seven head of horses in the stable, one of
which was killed. Two gentlemen from
Asheville, stopping for dinner, had a
valuable pair of horses in the stable sheds.
They escaped injury. Dr. Fletcher sus
tained considerable loss in the burning
of forage, farm implements. &c besides
the destruction of the roof of t he build

The horses, who partook of the usual
panic of animals, were saved by tho pres

THE FRANKLIN NORMAL. :

. Editors - Citizen , Our. Normal School
haslosed its third week with J 57 names
of bona fide students on the ro"d, ho in
fants iri niodel school either. rAt some
of the evuning lectures reliablo 'persons
have estimated that 300 persons have
been present. The students are earnest,
attentive and enthusiastic. Totc are a
number of students from South Carolina,
Georgia, ' Tennessee and one' from In
diana. One : young man . walked , 100
miles to attend the sessions of the Nor
mal. Prof. A. D. Farmer, like a,-wise of
ficer, intends that this young an shall
remargin the coanty as a teache-.' . Supt.
Hughes, of Jackson county, takfcs great
interest in the Normal, Dr. (5roff beiiig
overworked, .Prof Hughes yhas taken
charge of the Geography cla?sr and has
awakened much enthusiasm; t.i H-a sub
lipft Near v na I-TKft i"cnoci is irtru eu
ject.
ig of itself is an in-
dicatien. of the educational awakening iri
this part of the State. Women are the
natural edncators of children, and the
people of Western North Carolina have
found it out. Not only as teachers should
they be employed, but also should be
given places on the school committees,
as is now the custom in a number of
States. .
To-dav (Saturday July 18th) the
school committeemen from the whole
county ?, met in the courthouse, to the
number of over one hundred, to consider
ways and means to improve the condi
tion of the public schools of Macon coun
ty. : A number of important resolutions
were passed, among which we note one
to open all the schools the second Mon
day in August, one looking to the con
solidation ot districts wnenever tins is
possible, and another that the best teach
ers possible ,.be selected for - the schools.
The meeting was very harmonious and
much good will result from their ex
change of opinions. The convention ad
journed to trect the second Saturday in
Julv, 1880..
- Macon county is in earnest in tnis mat
ter of education, and if she holds on to
HBupt. Farmer ta direct the machinery,
she wi" eaa an tne counties in tins part
of the State. Jvlucation, universal euuca
tion, is a need of the times, and no pa
rent now does nis duty to nis ennaren
who does not secure for them, the best
education p ssible. Education is power.
Education is wealth. Riches take wings
and fly away, but if parents provide for
tnerr cunaren a gooa eancnuon, it pin
never be lost, while reason remains.
Then let the boys and girls one and all
be educated. The world cannot stand
still... Mankind must either progress or
retrograde. Which way shall it be in this
grand State?
we are locEini lorwara with inucu
pleasure to a promised visit from Major
Bingham of the justly celebrated Bing
ham School. He comes to addrese the
Normal. - We also expect a visit from
State Supt. Finger tho last week 'if the
school. There are al&rpe nuiubc: of fiue
young women hcie, and it is fred a
number of our young men. v.idovvers and
bachelofs, have felt tender fi-clings whii-h
may result in some additions to the
school funds of the State, through license
fees. ' '
Franklin is a live town, at lea t some
of her business men are alive to her in
terests. She has street ' lamps lighted
every night, a telephone, irood stores,
churches, and schools: she is building an
excellent road to the summit of her
nearest mountain, and proposes 'at an
early date to improve the sidewalks of
the town and pike her main street.
When the railroad conies along the Ten
nessee River, she will grow into a i!ace
of importance. - A.

Dr. Millard, chief ot the sanitary de
partment, desires us to ask attention of
all parties to the melon rind nuis-mce,
and to say that they must not be thrown
on the streets cr in the back lot?. The
ordinance forbids this, and it will be en
forced. The Doctor saj B the city is very
clean now, and shall be kept so, and he
hopes the people will unite in aiding in
this necessarv work.
